Workflow
- Gather item details
- Generate platform-specific descriptions
- Set optimized prices per platform
- Format for easy copy-paste
- User reviews, adjusts, posts himself
Pitfalls
- eBay: Requires exact item specifics for visibility
- Facebook: No shipping calculators - must state pickup/shipping clearly
- Mercari: Shipping costs eat margins - factor carefully
- Poshmark: Posh Protect fee (3%) + higher prices expected
- All: Never lie about condition - returns kill profits
